openKylin project is latest chapter in Beijing's love-hate relationship with Redmond
CHINA has ordered central government agencies and state-backed corporations to replace foreign-branded personal computers with domestic alternatives within 2 years, marking one of Beijing’s most aggressive efforts so far to eradicate key overseas technology from within its most sensitive organs.
Staff were asked after the week-long May break to turn in foreign PCs for home-made alternatives that run on operating software developed domestically, people familiar with the plan said. The exercise, which was mandated by central government authorities, is likely to eventually replace at least 50 million PCs on a central-government level alone they said, asking to remain anonymous discussing a sensitive matter.
The latest central government directive is likely to cover only PC brands and software, and exclude hard-to-replace components such as processors from Intel and AMD, the people said. China will mostly encourage Linux-based operating systems to replace Microsoft’s Windows Shanghai-based Standard Software is one of the top providers of such tools, one person said.

Thank you @Windows97 for your help with this post!
This spyware's common name is Windows 10 but people of high culture call it NSAos. This software disguises itself as an operating system but ask yourself this; who is operating who?!!! :think-about-it: Ads, forced updates, bloatware and the fucking data collection!! You aren't in the driver seat, this spyware is doing the driving!
Today is your lucky day though as I come with good news :meow-fiesta: there is a free open-source and privacy respecting operating system called Linux. This Linux thing is the backbone of the whole internet and Android is based on it.
You can do everything on Linux; from using Firefox or Spotify to playing your games... there is even a Linux program called WINE which allows you to run quite a lot of Windows games and programs as if they were native to Linux
With Linux, you are in full control, you doing the driving yourself, comrade!! So come to the penguins' side :penguin-dance: and reject the evil corporation.
I suggest you check out the Linux distribution Kubuntu... Manjaro KDE for those feeling a bit brave.
This post is for you to share your concerns about Linux with us or why you are hesitant. If you are a Linux user then tell us about how lovely it's been.
PS: any negative comments about Linux will result in a ban, the mods are onboard with this :)
Edit: and join us at !libre for everything open source.
Edit: on Linux, you get all your software from one place and you can easily update them from there.
